About this event
Agenda
- 6:00 PM: Doors open - 6:30 to 7:15 PM: Panel - After that: Free conversation and networking - "The way to get startup ideas is not to try to think of startup ideas. It's to look for problems, preferably problems you have yourself." Paul Graham Most people who want to build something sit in a room and brainstorm ideas. That is the wrong starting point.
The right starting point is a real problem. That is the ITCH worth scratching.
If you do not have that problem yourself, come find it here. ITCH is a panel discussion with business owners or industry experts in the SF community. We dig into what is actually hard in their business right now. Together, we find the ITCH.
You leave with a list of real problems you can actually work on. And some of the panelists might let you pilot your solution with them directly.You can find ways to leverage AI for these problems.
Industry
Speakers and industry will be announced soon. We're lining up high-quality guests and more interesting problems to work on.
ITCHATHON
Two days later we run the ITCHATHON, a hackathon where we solve the problems we found here. Sign up for that too →
This is for anyone who wants to build something. A startup, a side project, or just something for your CV. Up to you.
Come and leave with an ITCH.September 24th, 6 PM
